• LJ200 will only print black

  Hello

  I have a printer installed LJ200 and there a lot of toner all.

  It does not print color.  I did all the driver options are set to print color and not gray or black only.

  Whether on a network, I installed the printer on another machine and driver who said that it will be printed in color, it prints only in black and white.

  I checked on the printer, but can not find anywhere where it says to not print color.

  Hi michellecoombs,

  OK, what happens when you try to make a color copy from the printer?

  Updated the firmware on this printer and let me know if you are still having the same issues?

  I can only print in fast draft mode.  If I try fast normal, normal, or best etc. the paper through the machine and it spits out without printing. If I have multiple pages to print, it only spits out a no printed page and then closes.   I tried to print in many different programs and they all have the same law.  It makes no difference if it is color or black and white.

• I have a HP Officejet used that only prints black

  Hello! I recently bought a HP Officejet 4500 used. I use it as a printer with my MacBook Pro version 10.9.3 and it will only print black. I have combed all through information from print and can't find where to change the settings to print in color or black. Also, how can I connect it via Ethernet? Thank you!

  The Officejet being able to print colors without problems when compared with the computer, we have a path take it now. Try to reset the system of printing on Mac, this will delete the printer drivers, when return adding that it will be the default settings. Mac OS x: how to reset the printing system will guide you if you have not done this before.

  Now that the printer drivers are deleted, repair disk permissions on the computer. Download and install this: v.2.16.1 for OS X HP printer drivers and add your printer. There should be no reason why the printer would not print color of the computer.

• 6510 Photosmart will not print black

  6510 won't print black. I followed all the steps shown to others by the Lady HP representative on the help forum, but nothing helped. Before finding the forum, I thought that haveway just went black cartridge empty through a print page 7 of a document (even if it happened FAST--in 1/3 of a page), so I installed a new cartridge. No change, so at that point I found on the forum. I checked and my warranty expired a year ago. I'm in the United States. What I can do, I need this printer? THX

  On 6 January, I received a message from an employee of HP saying me that I would be but still no e-mail on their part What's up, I need my printer

  UPDATE: was contacted by an associate of HP and were very pleased with the solution provided by HP. always liked this printer and I have owned many other brands I was indifferent or not happy with. Happy that this has been resolved, thanks Yvonne and HP for your attention. Walt

• Printer HP Photosmart will not print black

  Printer does not print black.  New cartridge, vent open, rebooted, powered turn off/on. etc.  Will be no copy/print or computer/print.  Commercial ran.  Will only print colours - not black.  Need advice.

  Hi robin

  I hope that we can get you back to print.

  You have a c310 PS, right? Have you tried the usual things like

  -check ink levels

  -running a clean print head

  -verification of the cartridge is properly ventilated

  If so, then soaking the printhead suggested by Bob Headrick might work. Otherwise, you could buy a new printhead at shop part of HP (because I assume that your printer is now out of warranty?)

  The part No. you will need to pick up at the store is CN642A. The link is below ("buy a new online')

• HP Photosmart Premium C309g do not print black ink

  Hello

  My HP Photosmart Premium C309g (CD055A) will not print black ink even if the cartridge is full. He's going through the motions of printing but the pages come out blank. It prints colors, they are not as dark as before, so I know that black is not working. I have cleaned the print heads, turned off the printer, unplug the printer, restarted the computer, but nothing works. I get colors on the report of the print quality, but the printer status report comes out blank. I bought a new black ink cartridge (564XL) think the previous one was defective (levels showed a 75% ink) but I still have the same problem. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hey,.

  I see you have done some troubleshooting on the issue of the print quality that you are experiencing.  I would make sure you did all the troubleshooting steps available for your research problem in the document following the link.

  Print colors are the colors should not when the C309 Photosmart Premium printing.

  If you have completed all these steps, then I check the status of your printer warranty.  If it is out of warranty, you should consider the solution provided by Bob_Headrick in the thread found here.

  Hope this helps,

• 5512: 5512 printer will not print black - 3 of all colors print correctly

  Hello

  The 5512 will not print black.  New cartridge installed.  Clean print head run more than 5 times without problem.  There was many 5512 'no black printing problem' not noticed on this forum with many courses of resolution.  I followed the instructions found on so many comments, but unfortunitely, the problem still exist.  I noticed there were some done private view so I don't know that there is a similar problem that needs to be processed offline.  Thanks in advance for any help provided.

  Thank you all for the suggestions.

  Nothing has worked for don't solve the "no black ink.

  So, I took the print head of cart and carefully protected the small circuit board on the back side.  There is a large accumulation of ink on the bottom of the Assembly.  I sat the nozzles at the bottom of the distribution of very hot water and allowed some time to soak.  From there on, I used carefully some fabric material and q-tips to wipe the nozzles.  Then I got very hot water, and he ran to the top of the side of the Assembly to the screens and through the nozzles.  This effort lead to a very large discharge of ink black and color.  I dried the Assembly and reassembled the transport to the printer.  Placed all the cartridges back in, ran clean printhead once and then guess what? the printer now prints black and color inks better than he has in years.

  Total time needed to perform this cleanup was less than 30 minutes from start to finish.

  Good luck to all of you who have this problem.

  Before the rampage of the printer, it is interesting to try this fix.

  Good luck!
